How it all started.....
As a sun worshipping, slather me in baby oil teenager, I never once gave my skin a second thought! I was brown, blonde, and beautiful right???!!!!! WRONG! At age 35 I started noticing brown spots on my face, and my skin looked more like an orange peel than a baby's butt! At the same time, my beautiful mother began her life long dance with skin cancer. Watching someone you love slowly get "chopped up" has a profound way of changing you.
Propelled in part by vanity, part self preservation, I began learning about skin care, and sunscreen became a priority. While I didn't operate as an aestetician until much later in life, I was always "in the know" about what I needed to do, and use, to turn my sun worshipping days around. Never did I think I would turn that passion into a career!
At age 56, I found myself relocated to NE from Colorado, divorced after 25 years of marriage, and tasked with raising a grandchild. You'd think that was enough, but the universe wasn't done yet, I then lost my dad. Lost, angry, overwhelmed and treading water, I started the only thing I could do, rebuilding. I learned I WAS WORTHY, that I could survive and come out thriving, and that I was going to share my passions and strength with others!
